By Guillermo Gonzalez On today’s ID the Future, astrobiologist Guillermo Gonzalez unpacks one of his chapters in the new book The Comprehensive Guide to Science and Faith, edited by episode host Casey Luskin. Gonzalez and Luskin look at how our atmosphere as well as the sun, moon, distance from our host star, and position in the Milky Way are all curiously fine tuned not only for life but also for allowing Earth’s human inhabitants to observe and discover things near and far about nature. It’s as if a master designer made the Earth not merely for life but for curious

By Ken Ham Our children’s website—Kids Answers—is very popular. Parents love the safe, God-honoring content they know their children will find and love the exciting animal facts, biblical authority articles, activities, and more. And I’m excited to announce Kids Answers will now host three blogs to teach children about God’s Word and God’s world. The first of these three blogs just launched, and the other two will be coming very soon in our new “Show & Tell” section on the Kids site. Each blog honors God and his Word and, in a kid-friendly way, teaches children of all ages that

By Casey Luskin On this ID the Future from the vault, Casey Luskin highlights a glaring logical error in the pro-evolution book The Language of Science and Faith by Francis Collins and Karl Giberson. There Collins and Giberson assert that macroevolution is merely microevolution over long ages, and to cinch their argument they point to the observed macroevolution of … birds? No. Whales? No. A new land mammal? A fundamentally new type of bacteria? No again, and understandably so since no one has observed the macroevolution of any biological form. The idea is conjectural. So what example do Collins and

By Eric Cassell Today’s ID the Future spotlights the new book Animal Algorithms: Evolution and the Mysterious Origin of Ingenious Instincts. The author, Eric Cassell, joins host and Baylor computer engineering professor Robert J. Marks to discuss the groundbreaking book and, in particular, the chapters on some of the animal kingdom’s most stunning navigators—the arctic tern, homing pigeons, the monarch butterfly, and the desert ant, among others. Cassell has degrees in biology and engineering, and he draws on these and his decades of professional expertise in aircraft navigation systems to show that these creatures instinctively employ navigational technologies that humans

By Ken Ham We recently had a very special guest at the Ark Encounter—“Noah”! Now, as you will see in the photos, the biblical Noah didn’t visit the life-size Noah’s Ark we’ve constructed (obviously!), but a four-year-old boy who loves the biblical account of Noah and the flood did visit—and he even dressed the part. I thought these photos were very cute and knew our supporters would enjoy seeing one of the thousands of children enjoying free admission to the Ark Encounter (as well as the Creation Museum) this year. (It’s an offer that we decided to extend through 2022

We always offer something new, so families (many of

By Rob Stadler Today’s ID the Future spotlights a new origin-of-life video showing that researchers aren’t anywhere close to creating life from non-life, despite the fact most Americans seem to believe otherwise. In the episode, host Eric Anderson interviews Stairway to Life co-author Rob Stadler, who helped create the new Long Story Short animated video. Stadler and Anderson explore how origin-of-life papers and popular media reports have misled the public, evidenced by a survey underscored by Rice University synthetic organic chemist James Tour. Then they discuss several daunting origin-of-life hurdles beyond the synthesis of key chemical building blocks. These are

By Casey Luskin On this ID the Future from the vault, Casey Luskin tackles another neo-Darwinian assertion Francis Collins and Karl Giberson make in The Language of Science and Faith. In their book, Giberson and Collins capitalize on the popular notion of Neanderthals as pre-human, cavemen-like beasts in order to bolster their claims for common ancestry. But what sort of common ancestry? And do experts even agree that Neanderthals are drastically different from early homo sapiens? Luskin explores the connection between Neanderthals and humans and points to the growing evidence that Neanderthals interbred with homo sapiens, buried their dead, mastered

By Norman Stone On today’s ID the Future, award-winning British producer and director Norman Stone joins host John West to discuss Stone’s new biopic on C.S. Lewis, The Most Reluctant Convert. The freewheeling conversation covers a wide range of topics, including Lewis’s view of science, the problems of reductionist science, Lewis’s attraction to and rejection of the occult (and the strange connection between the occult and scientific materialism), Bertrand Russell’s atheism, the women in C.S. Lewis’s life (not just Joy Gresham), and even the strange fate of C.S. Lewis’s old rooms in Oxford (you’ll never guess what’s in there now!).

By Ken Ham I have some exciting news for you! But before I share that, a short story first (and some pictures). As part of our Answers in Genesis conference at Brookside Baptist Church in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, I spoke to hundreds of elementary and middle school children, and then high schoolers, teaching them how science confirms the Bible and that evolution is a false, blind-faith religion. Well, the response was very exciting! The students were so excited by what they were learning! So why am I …read more Source: Ken Ham AIG

West and McLean discuss how McClean came to do stage plays focused on Lewis’s work, and how he and filmmaker Norman Stone came to create a feature-length dramatic film in the midst of the coronavirus shutdown. McLean tells about Lewis’s long and winding conversion from agnosticism to Christianity, and then he and West focus on those aspects of Lewis’s conversion centered on science, evolutionary theory, and rational theism.

By Ken Ham I have been wanting to write a commentary on the early, foundational chapters of Genesis for years and am so excited to announce that Over the years, I have been asked many (many!) questions about Genesis such as: What was the light on day one? When were angels created? When did Adam and Eve sin? Are Genesis 1 & 2 contradictory accounts of creation? I’ve always wanted to provide a resource for families that not only answers these questions but also provides devotional thought on these foundational chapters of Genesis, helping them see who God is through
